I rember Lee and Sam Levitz, as I use to fuel their airplane as a linemen in my 20s at Tucson International Airport. Nicest people going around, as they always treated me with respect. Lee's smile and personality were immensely warm.

I'm very saddened by the death of your mother and grandmother. She always brightened up anywhere she happened to be and was a most caring and loving person. She touched many lives in many wonderful ways!

I'm sorry to hear of Lee's passing. During the '70's I worked as a 'puller' on the fields at Phx Trap & Skeet during high school and early college. Lee, Sam and Sam Jr would come up for shoots. They were always so gracious and nice - even to us staff workers. I still remember their classiness and kindness after all these years. My condolences to the family.

We first knew Lee when I worked at the Safari Club International's Tucson Office. Lee was an active member of the club and was always pleasant and delightful. She was a great hunter and excellent marksman. Lee will always hold a very special place in our hearts.

I never had the privledge of meeting her but she was one of the most amazing people on TV in Tucson History. I moved from Tucson to the White Mts in 2001 and thus have missed what I loved about Tucson. Sincerely
Duane Gibson.
I can't seem to light a candle on this page but will do a separate one for that.

The last time I spoke with her was last year as she was leaving Vivace and she still had the same charm, kindness and spirit as when I first met her at my father's shop nearly 50 years ago. She will be missed my many...she and Sam were a part of Tucson.

In the late 9170's Lee came into a health food store I briefly worked at. In her charming way, as she collected all the vitamins she wanted, she told us the secret of staying healthy and young.........eat well and take care of yourself.....She sure did. It was a delight seeing this beautiful 'older' woman who was so vibrant. I'm sure I am older now that she was, and wish I looked as glowing. She was one of a kind.

I first met Lee in late 1979 or early 1980 when I went into TV sales. Her beautiful eyes and smile always lit up a room. I last saw her at lunch six or seven years ago. She was with Kandie and I re introduced myself since I had not seen her in many years. Her eyes lit up and that beautiful smile crossed her face. I am so fortunate to have known her and now have been working with Kathi for many years. I know her eyes are shining brightly and that beautiful smile is beaming now that she is with Sam and those family members who passed prior. My thoughts and prayers to the family. Love,

I am so very sad to read this. Both Sam & Lee were good to us when we were first starting our local delivery service. We would bring furniture from the manufactures in Phoenix to your stores here in Tucson. They built their business believing in Tucson First. She has gone home to be with Sam. I am so sorry for the pain that you all must be feeling. May God wrap His loving and healing arms around you and bring you comfort in the wonderful memories that they shared with each of you.

We all have mentors in life who take an interest in us, and by doing so, change our lives in highly positive ways. I feel blessed that I called on Lee as a young TV account rep. She became my client, then my friend, and finally a person who I could go to for her sage wisdom. She was talented, beautiful, wise, thoughtful, and always full of life. I moved out of Tucson over 20 years ago, but I never forgot the friendship I had with this lovely lady. I will always cherish the life lessons she shared with me in those times, and think of her with respect and fondness. God bless her family at this time.
